Chicago Blackhawks @NHLBlackhawks
The #Blackhawks have acquired forward Ryan Haggerty from the Rangers in exchange for goaltender Antti Raanta.

Seems like a pretty lateral move from Talbot.

Smart move by the Rangers, move out Talbot for a bunch of picks, bring in Raanta for basically nothing

Rangers sure have a lot of Dmen.

McDonagh
Girardi
Staal
Yandle
Klein
Boyle
Runblad
Summers

I wonder if they plan on moving one of them to alleviate cap concerns.

Haggerty is a RW.

Yeah, and Runblad isn't in this deal either. Don't know what Roof-Daddy was thinking. Idiot.

He probably has post-draft blues.

30 teams, 30 new goaltending tandems?

Making room for Anders Nilsson? I know he wanted to come back but Raanta appeared to be in the way.

I guess Bowman wasn't bluffing about being committed to Crawford...Raanta is NHL ready, and leaving him at the Rock would be a waste...Haggarty doesn't project to make the 'Hawks at the start of the season...this move does nothing to help our cap problems...
